I have full health coverage as a full time permenant resident in Portugal but as I am now at retirement age the UK health care service wants to register me for a S1 which is for the UK to pay for my healthcare if I live in an EU country.
I was told that I don't have to apply. Is there any benefit to having the S1 application when I already have health care from Portugal. I can imagine it may be farer to Portugal if the UK pays since I have never had to contribute over here but this is not the point of my question either.
